Do you think your parent might be toxic? Do you feel like you are living with the consequences of bad parenting?

Does your parent still treat you badly even though you are an adult?

Maybe your parent has passed away, but you still seem to be affected by them and cant stop thinking about the way they treated you.

This Book is for anyone that has been in a toxic relationship with their parent and would like to learn more about it and learn how to recover from the long lasting traumatic effects that the relationship has left you with.

Does any of this sound familiar to you?

As a child:

- You felt like you were never good enough

- Your parent seemed wrapped up in themselves and their life

- Your parent didn’t seem to care about your feelings

- Your parent was very controlling and manipulative

- You were made to feel bad or wrong if you got upset

- Your needs weren’t met

As an adult:

- You still feel like you are not good enough

- You feel confused, anxious, sad in your relationship with your parent

- Your parent puts you down, and never celebrates your achievements

- You sometimes doubt your perception of events, and feel like you are going crazy

- You struggle to make decisions and have difficulty trusting your gut instinct or intuition

- Your parent is very critical, manipulative, controlling and tells lies

- They still don’t seem to care about your feelings or your needs

- You feel like you are the one parenting them

Maybe you have tried to talk to your partner or friends about your relationship, but they don’t understand either and they may even tell you that it couldn’t have been that bad. This Audiobook is for you if you have been in a toxic relationship with your parent and you just want to make sense of it and make some changes.
